A Man Like None Other

Everyone was stunned by Thaddeus’ remark, yet no one voiced their thoughts.

Thaddeus continued, “Whether it’s the Alchemist Guild or the top families, there’s always been a constant struggle-both in the open and behind the scenes. Both Mr. Boucher and Mr. Dupont from Yannopolis are surely aware of this. With the Zupakie and Zeever families now united through marriage, even the esteemed Mr. Bellamy has joined the Zeever family. And let’s not forget Jared, who suddenly appeared out of nowhere and was brought in by Winonabeth, despite her having left the Zeever family decades ago. It was clear that the power of the Zeevers and Zupakies surpassed any other prestigious families. In time, they will soon take over the Boucher and Dupont families. Maybe it’s time for a shake-up at the Alchemist Fair. I doubt Medicine God Island invited everyone here just out of kindness. From what I’ve heard, the Island was under threat, which is why they were so determined to host the Fair there.”

“President Surrey, what mind game are you playing? We all trust you, so there’s no need to keep us in suspense,” demanded Ernesto, the head of the Boucher family.
